Soldiers Tale Impressive

Soldiers Tale was an impressive winner at Riccarton Park, in just his second race day start and third appearance on a racetrack.
After Jumping well from his wide draw of 15, Jamie Bullard elected to slide forward and put him in the race he settled nicely and was a happy horse following before taking the lead and holding it from second place runner Royal Governess (long neck) and Sourire ( 1 1/4 lengths). His race debut for fourth saw him also draw wide and lead, however the improvement in his fitness and ring craft had him ready for his win today.
Soldiers Tale or around the stables 'Bert' is a strapping son of two fast horses in Stravinsky and Foxy Blonde, he has taken time to furnish into his large frame and is still developing mentally.

Soldiers Tale was a 2009 Premier sale purchase by Go Racing Ltd from the Haunui Farm draft.
